We have measured the magnetic susceptibilities of a CuF/sub 2/ .center dot. 2H/sub 2/O sample by means of the SQUID(superconducting quantum interference device) at the magnetic fields of 0.5 T and 1 mT, in the temperature range 5-300 K. The sample was found to contain some nonmagnetic calcium and magnesium impurities by the elemental analysis. Our measurements differ from known results for pure Cu F/sub 2/ .center dot. 2H/sub 2/O and are well explained by the effect of the nonmagnetic impurities in our sample. The purity of our sample derived from the temperature dependence of the susceptibilities was compared with that from the elemental analysis.

This paper has reviewed some of the basic principles that underlie the field of defect chemistry in simple ATi$O_3$(A=Ca, Sr, Ba) perovskites. Frenkel defects in perovskite structure is very much unlikely, and Schottky defects and intrinsic electronic defects in undoped materials are negligibly small compared with background acceptor impurities. The electrical properties of perovskite ceramics are dependent on the aliovalent impurities. Since perovskite structure is a ternary system, the stoiohiometry between cations as well as cation-anion ratio will affect defect structure and electrical properties. BaTi$O_3$and SrTi$O_3$show a limited deviation from the cation stoichiometry while CaTi$O_3$has significant excess CaO and Ti$O_2$solubility.

In this study, metallurgical grade (MG) silicon with 99% purity produced by arc furnace process was systematically investigated for slag refining. The most problematic impurities to remove from MG silicon are boron (B) and phosphorus (P). To remove B and P from MG-silicon, we used synthetic slag in the molten state. MG-silicon with synthetic slag of CaO, $SiO_2$, and $CaF_2$ was melted using by high-frequency induction furnace with electrical output of 50kW. Specimens prepared by various refining process conditions(holding time, mixture ratio) were inspected by combined analysis of ICP-MS and XRF. With this approach, B has been reduced to <5ppm, P to <1ppm and other impurities to 0.1~0.2% except for Calcium. Calcium has been increased from 17ppm to 1500ppm. Problem of calcium contamination will be resolved by additional refining processes.

Dion-Jacobson phases $CsCa_2Nb_2FeO_9$ and $CsCa_2Nb_2AlO_9$ were reinvestigated by the Rietveld analysis of powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) method, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). These nominal compounds, previously known as the oxygen-deficient layered perovskites with the sequences of $NbO_6-MO_4-NbO_6$ in tripled slab, in fact, were mixed phases of n = 3 Dion-Jacobson phases and impurities such as $Ca_2NbFeO_6$ and $Ca_3Al_2O_6$. The difference of morphology and chemical in-homogeneity between Dion-Jacobson phases and impurities could be clearly identified by scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The chemical composition of $CsCa_2Nb_2FeO_9$ was calculated into $Cs_{0.59}Ca_{2.64}Nb_{2.92}Fe_{0.81}$ in small agglomerate crystals and $Cs_{0.95}Ca_{1.97}Nb_{3.08}Fe_{0.15}$ in long plate-like crystals.

Two HPLC methods such as cefadroxil and cefalexin methods were compared in their performance for the quantitative analysis of the content and purity of $\beta$ -lactamic antibiotic, cefradine, for six bulk drug samples. Between the two methods, the cefadroxil method prescribed by the European Pharmacopoeia (EP) for the determination of impurities in cefradoxil was superior to the cefalexin method prescribed by the EP and by the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) for the determination of cefalexin impurity in cefradine in terms of the greater stability of the chromatogram baselines and the higher precision, i.e., the lower % relative standard deviation (RSD). Based on the comparison of the two HPLC methods, the cefadroxil method was recommended to replace the TLC method, which has been prescribed by the EP as the official method for determination of extraneous impurities in cefradine.

In this study, to reduce the consumption of chemicals in cleaning processes, Si-wafers contaiminated with metallic impurities were cleaned with electrolyzed water(EW), which was generated by the electrolysis of a diluted electrolyte solution or ultra pure water(UPW). Electrolyzed water could be controlled for obtaining wide ranges of pH and ORP(oxidation-reduction potential). The pH and oxidation-reduction potential of anode water and cathode water were measured to be 4.7 and +1000mV, and 6.3 and -550mV, respectively. To analyze the amount of metallic impurities on Si-wafer surfaces, ICP-MS was introduced. Anode water was effective for Cu removal, while cathode water was more effective for Fe removal.

EBFZM( Electron Beam Floating Zone Melting) 법을 이용하여 몰리브덴에서의 금속계 불순물과 침입형 불순물의 정련기구 및 단결정 성장기구를 연구하 였다. Fe, Cr, Co등의 금속계 불순물은 몰리브덴과의 평형증기압의 차이에 따른 불순물의 선택적 증발에 의하여 우수한 정련효과를 나타내며, 몰리브덴보다 응점이 높은 Ta, W는 잘 제거되지 않았다. 한편 대역 정제에 의한 정련효과는 미약함을 확인하였다. EBF ZM은 C,0,N등의 침입형 불순물의 정련에도 효과적 이었다. 본 연구의 모든 조건에서 몰리브덴은 단결정으로 성장하였으며 2차 재결정 epitaxy에 의한 단결 정 성장기구가 제시되었다. 몰리브덴 단결정 내의 전 위밀도는 strain-anneal법에 의한 단결정의 경우보다 높았으며,본 실험의 열처리 조건에서는 변화하지 않았다. The purification and single crystal growth mechanisms of molybdenum were analysed in EBFZM ( electron beam floating zone melting). Metallic impurities of Fe, Cr, Co were purified efficiently but Ta and W were not removed well in this study. It was due to a preferential evaporation of the elements caused by the difference in equillibrium vapor pressure between the elements and molybdenum. The pu- rification effect by zone refining was not significant. The EBFZM also refined the interstitial impurities of C, 0 and N, effectively. The single crystals of molybdenum were grown regardless of the experimental conditions and the secondary recrystallization epitaxy was surge sled as a growth mechanism. The dislocation density in single crystal was higher than that by strain-anneal method, and was not reduced by heat treatments.

Alloy 617 is a candidate Ni-based superalloy for intermediate heat exchanger (IHX) of a high-temperature gas reactor (VHTR), because of its good creep strength and corrosion resistance at high temperature. Small amount of impurities such as $H_2O$, $H_2$, CO and $CH_4$ are introduced inevitably in helium, as a coolant during operation of a VHTR. Reactions of material and impurities are accelerated with increase of temperature to $950^{\circ}C$ of operating temperature of a VHTR, leading to material corrosion aggravation. In this circumstance, high-temperature corrosion tests were performed at $950^{\circ}C$ in air and impure helium environments, up to 250 hours in this study. Oxidation rate of $950^{\circ}C$ in an air environment was higher than that of impure helium, explained by difference in outer oxide morphology and microstructure as a function of oxygen partial pressure. An equiaxed Cr-rich surface oxide layer was formed in an air environment, and a columnar Cr-rich oxide was formed in an impure helium environment.

A survey was made on detection limit, reproducibility, matrix effect, linear dynamic range and the memory effect of yttrium and europium in order to analyze rare earth elements which exist as impurities in the rare earth oxide which is raw materials of fluorescent substance. When analysing a certain amount of thulium quantitatively using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, it was found that the analysis was interfered with $EuO^+$ which is one of polyatomic ions caused by plasma. As the intensity of thulium linearly proportional to the europium concentration, it was possible to the determine the actual concentration of thulium.
